Not only are the Chiefs currently in first-place, but a trip to the city's north side on a random night can always give local baseball fans a glance at players that have a chance to become one of the great ones in Major League Baseball.

Chiefs fans were treated to early looks at Nationals' prospects Stephen Strasburg and Bryce Harper in recent years.

This week's visitor to NBT Bank Stadium gives you a healthy chance to one day say "I saw that guy play here" with the arrival of Indianapolis outfield prospect Gregory Polanco.

"As he's shown us more and more signs that he may be putting himself in a position to take that next step, we wanted to make sure we didn't ask him to do something at the major league level that he hasn't done in a long time," Pirates general manager Neal Huntington said recently.

"There are some things we're trying to get him used to. Right field is obviously a big one, and that's gone well. I don't know that he's going to hit third for us. ... The last time I checked we've got a pretty good guy there."

That "pretty good guy there" Huntington is referring to is National League MVP Andrew McCutchen.

Why isn't Polanco in the majors yet?

The easy explanation is that not only does he have to adjust to being in the lead off spot, but he is designated as a "Super Two" player.
